Falcon's Nest at Lake Leelanau

4 bd / 2.5 ba with gorgeous view overlooking Lake Leelanau

The Falcon`s Nest at Lake Leelanau is a 4-bedroom, 2.5-bath cottage-style home with breathtaking views of Lake Leelanau. The views can be enjoyed from either the main deck or the terrace off the upstairs master bedroom. The large backyard with fire pit is perfect for kids or adults to play games and run wild and free. The spacious sitting area is perfect for gathering to enjoy morning coffee. The large kitchen with coffee bar is stocked with all the amenities and utensils to prepare homemade meals. Just 2.5 miles from Leland and in the heart of Leelanau County, this cottage is the perfect jumping off point for your vacation up north.

Smart Lock with code will be used for entry. Co-host Chris will be available via phone or text for any access questions.

Chris is the dedicated cohost and will be your point of contact during your trip.

It`s unlikely that you`ll meet him in person, but he is always available via the booking platform app, text, or mobile and is quite responsive to inquiries.

Please don`t hesitate to reach out it you have any questions about the accommodations, area, or you booking.

Ps. If for some reason Chris needs to visit the property, he will notify and confirm with guests prior to coming out.

The cottage is located off of Duck Lake road, has a dedicated driveway, and sits on a bluff overlooking Lake Leelanau. The property lies next to a subdivision with a few neighboring homes visible, however they are not overly close by.

With that in mind, we ask guests to be mindful of the community and keep noise levels to a respectable level while also maintaining quiet hours from 11PM to 8 AM daily.

To get around you`ll need the use of a vehicle, as the cottage is centrally located in northern Leelanau County but isn`t walking distance to any of the attractions.

Additionally, guests should be aware that the driveway is long and quite steep, although it is paved and maintained throughout the year.

The driveway is steep, take care when coming and going.

The outdoor fire pit is a propane operated unit, rather than a wood fired one. The instructions for use are listed on the unit itself.

Guests will be required to bag trash and deliver to roadside bins upon check-out.

Easy check-in and check-out. Everything was labeled in the house and instructions were clear. The view over the lake is nothing short of spectacular.

Advertised with ammenities that were not available or not functioning.Beautiful view, but so many bugs you cannot sit outside at night, then you cannot sit inside and have the doorwalls open because there are no screens! A lot of tics on the deck. The AC was not sufficient for the house.Parking not suitable for more than 2 vehicles.Other than all that, we had a good time. The area is beautiful and lots to see and do. Overall, I feel for the price we paid, I would have expected better.

Beautiful Home Away From Home

We enjoyed our stay at the Falcon's nest, where we had a great view of the fireworks over the lake. It is in a picturesque area with beautiful nature surrounding the house. It is well kept and the owners have clearly taken care in decorating the place. It's super cute and comfy.
